Chuck Metals, based in Pulau Ujong, Singapore, has built a solid reputation as a reliable manufacturer and supplier of top-notch stainless steel products, including Stainless Steel 317L Hex Bars and Rods. They’re well-known for providing corrosion-resistant materials that are specifically designed to withstand harsh chemical and marine environments. Industries like petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and pulp and paper count on Chuck Metals for dependable solutions. With a commitment to precision manufacturing, rigorous quality control, and a strong focus on customer satisfaction, Chuck Metals guarantees that their 317L hex bars and rods not only meet global standards but also perform consistently well in challenging service conditions throughout Singapore and Southeast Asia.
Stainless Steel 317L Hex Bar/Rod is a low-carbon, molybdenum-enhanced austenitic stainless steel alloy, featuring a composition of chromium (18–20%), nickel (11–15%), molybdenum (3–4%), and carbon capped at 0.03%. This alloy is particularly effective against pitting, crevice corrosion, and chemical attacks, especially in acidic settings. Its mechanical properties boast a tensile strength of about 75 ksi (515 MPa), a yield strength close to 30 ksi (205 MPa), and an elongation rate of roughly 35–40%. The low carbon content not only improves weldability but also minimizes the risk of intergranular corrosion post-welding.

SS 317L Hex Bars/Rods are commonly used in chemical processing, marine environments, pharmaceuticals, and food processing due to their excellent corrosion resistance and high strength. They are ideal for handling aggressive chemicals, including sulfuric acid, bleaching solutions, and pulp liquor. In construction, they are used for structural components and fittings.
SS 317L Hex Bars/Rods typically range from 6 mm to 100 mm in diameter, with lengths up to 6 meters. Tolerances generally conform to ±0.5 mm for diameter. These dimensions and tolerances ensure precision for machining, making them ideal for applications requiring high strength, corrosion resistance, and tight fit.
The high chromium (18-20%) and molybdenum (3-4%) content in SS 317L enhances its resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion by forming a passive oxide layer that protects against chloride-induced degradation. The low carbon content further reduces the risk of stress corrosion cracking, ensuring durability in harsh chloride environments.
You’ll find Stainless Steel 317L Hex Bars and Rods in a variety of applications, from chemical processing equipment and condensers to pulp and paper machinery, food processing plants, and marine components. Their exceptional corrosion resistance makes them ideal for dealing with strong acids, chlorides, and other aggressive materials. The hexagonal shape facilitates precise machining and straightforward assembly in mechanical applications. Industries such as pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, and wastewater treatment trust 317L for its durability, low maintenance needs, and reliable resistance to tough industrial conditions.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
